Tea with Alice and the Cheshire Cat Special guests: Pythagoras and Theano of Croton 1. GPT 2 Medium (my fav for Alice comics) 2.

Refused to make an image because it said it was against the rules. wtf? These next bits of info were put together with Google Search AI: Pythagoras was a 6th-century BCE Greek philosopher and mathematician who founded a mystical, communal movement centered on the belief that numbers are the divine building blocks of reality and the cosmos. Theano of Croton was an ancient Greek mathematician and philosopher who applied Pythagorean principles of mathematical harmony to human ethics, psychology, and relationships, and successfully led the movement after Pythagoras's death. Theano was Pythagoras' wife and may have started as his student. Pythagoras died (or was killed during a political uprising against the secret society -- Pythagoreans saw math as also spiritual and a way to live their lives. They saw numbers as the literal thoughts of the Monad, the supreme, divine origin point of everything in existence. It wasn't a personal God who spoke to people, but a divine, singular essence of supreme intellect and order. All the other traditional Greek gods and goddesses were viewed as divine expressions or "numbers" flowing out of this single source of absolute truth). After his death, the Pythagorean school faced violent persecution. Theano, alongside her daughters, took control of the school. She kept the doctrines alive, managed the community, and spread Pythagorean math and philosophy across the Mediterranean. Crucially, she championed intellectual freedom, ensuring that mathematics and philosophy education remained open to girls. Historians note that without Theano’s leadership, the entire Pythagorean tradition might have vanished into obscurity.
